Docking Station for Wheelchairs

Docking Station for Wheelchairs – Vehicle/Car Access Aid

An automated wheelchair lock-down mechanism allows the wheelchair user to ride in comfort and safety . It can be located in various positions ( Providing that seat belts are available).

The benefits of a docking station are that the 4 manual retaining belts that secure the wheel chair to the vehicle are no longer required.

A simple to use latch assembly is mounted to the floor and a locating pin is attached to wheel chair. Both manual and electric chairs can be retro-fitted.

This terrific system can be installed in and converted car due to its design, making your life that little bit easier.

Docking Stations simplify the restraint function and remove the need for bulky wheel chair straps. The system incorporates a docking device which is attached the floor of the vehicle and a retaining plate is mounted to wheelchair*. The wheelchair is simply pushed or driven into the wheelchair dock. To release, an easy to operate button is pushed, and the chair is free to be removed. No more bending required !* This applies to most on the market today.

Docking station systems are made by a few manufacturers. We offer three types which all have their own unique features and are of a high quality standard. The Automobility and Freedom range are traditionally pre-wired into their conversions at the factory. The Q`Straint range suits aftermarket installations .
